ABSTRACT

The present disclosure relates to novel compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and their use in prevention and treatment of cancer and related diseases and conditions. In some embodiments, the compounds disclosed herein exhibit androgen receptor degradation activity.

This application is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No.16/889,289, filed Jun. 1, 2020, which claims priority to U.S.Provisional Patent Application No. 62/904,007 filed on Sep. 23, 2019.The contents of the two applications are incorporated herein byreference.

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to novel compounds, pharmaceuticalcompositions containing such compounds, and their use in prevention andtreatment of diseases and conditions, e.g., cancer. The compoundsdisclosed herein exhibit androgen receptor degradation activity.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

Androgens, through binding to the Androgen Receptor (AR), govern a widerange of physiological processes. For example, androgens are requiredfor normal prostate development and function as they are key in the ARsignaling pathway. Unfortunately, the AR signaling pathway is alsoimplicated in the development and survival of cancers, such as prostate,breast, and other cancers (see, e.g., “Androgen Receptor in ProstateCancer”, Endocrine Reviews, 2004, 25(2), 276-308; and “Androgenreceptors beyond prostate cancer: ann old marker as a new target”,Oncotarget, 2014, 6(2), 592-603).

Traditional methods to treat cancers where AR is implicated, such asprostate cancer, involves AR signaling suppression through, for example,androgen deprivation therapy. Such therapy includes chemical and/orsurgical castration. Alternatively, anti-androgen therapy may bepursued, whereby a patient is treated with an AR inhibitor, such asenzalutamide (XTANDI®). Although these treatment methods have resultedin improved prognoses for individuals with androgen receptor positivecancer, cancer progression is eventually observed and occurs through,for example, AR gene amplification and/or development of AR mutations.

Accordingly, there exists a need to treat AR positive cancer that haltsprogression of the cancer, even if the individual has experienced one ormore prior therapies. One approach to achieve this goal would be toutilize the naturally occurring cellular ubiquitin-mediated degradation.Without being bound to any theory, it is believed that AR degradationmay occur when both AR and a ubiquitin ligase are bound and brought intoclose proximity.

Cereblon (“CRBN”) E3 ubiquitin ligase is a ubiquitin ligase that formsan E3 ubiquitin ligase complex with damaged DNA binding protein 1 andCullin 4. It functions as a substrate receptor by bringing thesubstrates to close proximity for ubiquitination and subsequentdegradation by proteasomes. Recently, it has been discovered that smallmolecules drugs, e.g., thalidomide and its close analogs, lenalidomideand pomalidomide, can simultaneously interact with CRBN and some otherproteins. In doing so, CRBN may be exploited for target proteindegradation, such as IKZF1 and IKZF3. This is thought to account for theanti-myeloma effects of thalidomide and related compounds.

Thus, disclosed herein are compounds useful for the treatment ofcancers, such as prostate cancer. In some instances, the cancer is ARpositive. The compounds disclosed herein are bifunctional molecules,where one portion of the molecule is capable of interacting with CRBNand the other portion, which is linked to the CRBN-interacting portionof the molecule via a linking moiety, is capable of interacting with AR.

These preparations are administeredintravenously, although administration may also be affected by means ofsubcutaneous, intramuscular, or intradermal injection. Such preparationsmay conveniently be prepared by admixing at least one compound describedherein with water and rendering the resulting solution sterile andisotonic with the blood. Injectable compositions according to thepresent disclosure may contain from about 0.1 to about 5% w/w of theactive compound.

Formulations suitable for rectal administration are presented asunit-dose suppositories. These may be prepared by admixing at least onecompound as described herein with one or more conventional solidcarriers, for example, cocoa butter, and then shaping the resultingmixture.

Formulations suitable for topical application to the skin may take theform of an ointment, cream, lotion, paste, gel, spray, aerosol, or oil.Carriers and excipients which may be used include Vaseline, lanoline,polyethylene glycols, alcohols, and combinations of two or more thereof.The active compound (i.e., at least one compound of Formula (1) (e.g.Formula (1A), or a tautomer, stereoisomer, or pharmaceuticallyacceptable salt thereof, or a deuterated derivative of any of theforegoing) is generally present at a concentration of from about 0.1% toabout 15% w/w of the composition, for example, from about 0.5 to about2%.

The amount of active compound administered may be dependent on thesubject being treated, the subjects weight, the manner of administrationand the judgment of the prescribing physician. For example, a dosingschedule may involve the daily or semi-daily administration of theencapsulated compound at a perceived dosage of about 1 μg to about 1000mg. In another embodiment, intermittent administration, such as on amonthly or yearly basis, of a dose of the encapsulated compound may beemployed. Encapsulation facilitates access to the site of action andallows the administration of the active ingredients simultaneously, intheory producing a synergistic effect. In accordance with standarddosing regimens, physicians will readily determine optimum dosages andwill be able to readily modify administration to achieve such dosages.

A therapeutically effective amount of a compound or compositiondisclosed herein can be measured by the therapeutic effectiveness of thecompound. The dosages, however, may be varied depending upon therequirements of the patient, the severity of the condition beingtreated, and the compound being used. In one embodiment, thetherapeutically effective amount of a disclosed compound is sufficientto establish a maximal plasma concentration. Preliminary doses as, forexample, determined according to animal tests, and the scaling ofdosages for human administration is performed according to art-acceptedpractices.

Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy can be determined by standardpharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals,e.g., for determining the LD₅₀ (the dose lethal to 50% of thepopulation) and the ED₅₀ (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% ofthe population). The dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects isthe therapeutic index and it can be expressed as the ratio LD₅₀/ED₅₀.Compositions that exhibit large therapeutic indices are preferable.

Data obtained from the cell culture assays or animal studies can be usedin formulating a range of dosage for use in humans. Therapeuticallyeffective dosages achieved in one animal model may be converted for usein another animal, including humans, using conversion factors known inthe art (see, e.g., Freireich et al., Cancer Chemother. Reports50(4):219-244 (1966) and the following table (Table 3) for EquivalentSurface Area Dosage Factors).

TABLE 3 Equivalent Surface Area Dosage Factors. To: Mouse Rat Monkey DogHuman From: (20 g) (150 g) (3.5 kg) (8 kg) (60 kg) Mouse 1 ½ ¼ ⅙ 1/12Rat 2 1 ½ ¼ 1/7 Monkey 4 2 1 ⅗ ⅓ Dog 6 4 ⅗ 1 ½ Human 12 7 3 2 1

The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range ofcirculating concentrations that include the ED₅₀ with little or notoxicity. The dosage may vary within this range depending upon thedosage form employed and the route of administration utilized.Generally, a therapeutically effective amount may vary with thesubject's age, condition, and gender, as well as the severity of themedical condition in the subject. The dosage may be determined by aphysician and adjusted, as necessary, to suit observed effects of thetreatment.
